db.select did the same, and so I checked the documentation, and
SQLForm also converts into a table.
So I did something more cleverish (I think?): for those who need to do
the same, the result will only work with db.select (maybe SQLForm, but
haven't tested). I created a for loop to grab just the rows, and set
it to another variable to be used within the textarea. The result is:
for rows in db(db.t_problems.id==request.args(0)).select():
k = rows.f_skeleton
form = FORM(TEXTAREA(_id='problem_code',_name='solution',
value=k),
INPUT(_type='submit'), _action='', _method='post')
And it worked!
